Fortunately, @voron 's site on snac themes still has this screenshot, which I'm happy to share.
This response from the author of snac motivated me to continue, study, and appreciate this fantastic software for the Fediverse.
Snac is an example of true internet democracy: it runs everywhere and allows anyone to have their own autonomous, personal space in the Fediverse.
"Don't despair or quit", says an author who cares. And the Fediverse cares about them.
For today's #ThankYouTuesday, I want to thank grunfink - @grunfink - for the excellent work they do, quietly and with passion. I suggest that if you think snac is a good idea and you have the means, you offer them at least a coffee.

Snac2 is an excellent software solution for accessing the Fediverse. It is lightweight, very easy to compile and install, has minimal dependencies, and the development is progressing along a clear, clean, and logical path - thank you, @grunfink
Since last December, BSD Cafe has had, among its services, a snac instance - https://snac.bsd.cafe - which has been used sparingly, mainly by some for testing purposes. I’ve kept it as a 'testing' option.
In light of the interest it is generating (we now have stable users) and given that development is evolving to allow for both inbound and outbound movement, I have decided to designate it as a stable solution for accessing the Fediverse and to consider it a primary service of the BSD Cafe.
It has always received the utmost attention, I have consistently updated it promptly, and it has always been accessible, but I have also modified all the descriptions to clarify that it is a stable and definitive solution.
For more information, there is always a dedicated page on our wiki: https://wiki.bsd.cafe/snac.bsd.cafe
Stay Tuned!

Just published a guide on setting up Snac on an Ubuntu VM using NGINX Proxy Manager. Snac is an incredibly lightweight #ActivityPub server. A true nom nom among fediverse platforms.
If you're curious about minimal fediverse instances, check it out:
Is #snac2 a suitable fedi server for a single-person, daily-driver instance, accessed via mastodon apps, interacting with the wider fediverse?
I /think/ I've mostly seen it deployed as a more write-centric service (for info bots/etc) ... but I could be mistaken.#snac #Fediverse #hosting #selfhosting
Nom Nom - #Snac2 was installed in my HomeLab. But...I installed using apt on Ubuntu and it installed an older version. This was NOT the documented install process - this was the "is snac2 included in apt let's try it" lazy route.
It was ridiculously easy...but I want to install from source so I can keep up with the latest. Will tackle that tomorrow.
Proof tho!
There we go. #Snac2 up and running with the preferred installation process. Added custom styling to boot. One confusion point with styling is that it does NOT affect the root page (greeting.html) only the profile pages. So I thought I had done something wrong, but finally figured it out.
Updating Mastodon: 20 minutes
Updating snac2: 2 minutes
